Jacob and the Prodigal

Jacob and the Prodigal

How Jesus Retold Israel's Story.

Kenneth Bailey has become the premier commentator in our generation on the " cultural world behind Jesus' parables. And of all the parables, Bailey keeps
returning to the prodigal son more than any other one. Here, in one very
insight-filled yet readable layperson's book, is a more accessible form of much
of his previous commentary on Luke 15, plus more--fascinating parallels with
Genesis and the accounts of Jacob and Esau. Bailey is undoubtedly right that
there is more of the full-orbed gospel of redemption in this parable than first
meets the eye. - Craig L. Blomberg"

'There cannot be anything new left to be said about the parable of the " prodigal son.' Really? Not when Kenneth Bailey sets to work with his phenomenal
knowledge of Scripture and Jewish writings, the Middle-Eastern scene and early
Arabic commentators on the New Testament! The result is a highly readable,
exciting and stimulating new reading of the stories in Luke 15 in tandem with
the story of Jacob. Preachers on these stories will never be able to expound
them again in the way that they used to do but will find treasures new in them
thanks to this insightful treatment. The gospel stands out all the more clearly
as a result of Bailey's interpretation. - I. Howard Marshall"
